朝食とフレンドリーな接客でオススメ

アクセス:dartを使えば空港から15分、10ドル程で着く。ナイトマーケット、ニューモスクも近くアクセスは良い。徒歩圏内だが、近くの大通りが車の往来が激しいことから渡れず、徒歩で行けるかは分からなかった。ホテル周辺には飲食店、スーパーもあり買い物や食事には困らない。 部屋:宿泊したのはキングサイズのベッドがある部屋だった。1人で泊まるには十分広く、快適に過ごせた。空の冷蔵庫、コーヒーメーカー、使い捨てスリッパ、アイロン、ドライヤー、ミネラルウォーター2本(毎日交換)、シャンプー、ボディソープ、石鹸あり。パジャマはなし。難点はシャワーとトイレの水勢が若干弱いこと、枕が高いこと、(自分は気にならなかったが)冷蔵庫の稼働音が少しすることだった。ただ、神経質にならずアジアのホテルに慣れてる人なら特に問題はないかと思う。 接客:ホテルスタッフは丁寧でフレンドリー。聞き取りやすい英語で対応してくれ良かった。 朝食:美味しい。ルンダン、カレー、ミーゴレン、ナシゴレン、ケーキ、フルーツなど現地の伝統料理が並べられた日替わり？のバイキングでとても美味しく満足だった。朝早くから遅い時間まで食べられ、便利でもあった。窓からの眺めも日差しもよく、気持ちのいいモーニングタイムを過ごせた。
